I took over 300 photos for this set of photos so, I will break this apart into two parts, this first part we will cover battling the dust storm, and Japanese tea room :) A post about bike rental in Showa Kinen Koen can be found here on my art blog entry here! ^^/

We survived Anime Revolution 2013 Day! Thanks everyone who came by and bought something! Also sorry if we scared anyone when we tried to stop you from touching our dolls/display — before we put up little signs at the corners of our table. We did not want the dolls to get knocked over or damaged! Hope you understand! ^^;/

During our Japan trip earlier this year, we were incredibly lucky to bump into a time where the Shibazakura is in bloom by Mt Fuji (9th May) ^o^!

Aki demanded I take her, as she wanted to take photos of the rare sight :P Thanks Bluestarbaby for suggesting that we check out Mt Fuji on this trip… XD we were able to take a bus together for a day trip. It was quite an adventure! :) We had to get up really early I woke at 5 am, find the bus terminal to collect and pay for our tickets, we slept most of the bus journey which took felt like a couple hour plus each way?

After we came back from our trip, Mt Fuji was announced as a World Heritage site :D Omedetou! ^o^
